The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) has extended the filing deadlines for the GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B GST returns by two days each following technical difficulties reported by GSTN.
The new deadline for monthly GSTR-1 filers is January 13, 2025, while the extended deadline for quarterly filers is now January 15, 2025.
Similarly, the monthly GSTR-3B returns filing deadline has been extended to January 22, 2025. For quarterly GSTR-3B filers, deadlines differ by region, with some states having a new deadline of January 24, 2025, and others set to January 26, 2025.
On January 10, 2025, the CBIC announced on X (formerly Twitter), “To accommodate taxpayers who couldn’t meet the original deadlines due to technical issues, the deadline for filing FORM GSTR-1 for the December 2024 tax period has been extended to January 13, 2025. Additionally, the deadline for FORM GSTR-1 filings for the October to December 2024 quarter under the QRMP Scheme has been extended to January 15, 2025.”
